From the Paper:

"The scenario involving the couple Tom and Susan who had to deal with physical and psychological changes as they grew older was very interesting to me. As I took on the role of the Psychologist I found myself interacting with the characters and feeling the emotions of their plight. I noticed in their questionnaire that they had an active and satisfying sex life, and over the last few years had noticed a slowing of sexual responses. Susan stated that she had lost her ability to enjoy sex due to the decline of the body's production of estrogen and thinning of the vaginal walls. I had not realized that many women also experienced the loss of flexibility of the vagina and a decrease in vaginal lubrication. The old myth that women cannot reach orgasm past the age of 70 is untrue. With the knowledge of the changes in the body and how to manage these changes you can enjoy orgasm further into your golden years."
